BACKGROUND: This study aimed to develop and validate five machine learning models designed to predict actinomycotic osteomyelitis of the jaw. Furthermore, this study determined the relative importance of the predictive variables for actinomycotic ost...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of sustained arrhythmia. It results from abnormal irregularities in the electrical performance of the atria, and may cause heart thrombosis, stroke, arterial disease, thromboembolism, and heart failure...
PURPOSE: Although renal failure is a major healthcare burden globally and the cornerstone for preventing its irreversible progression is an early diagnosis, an adequate and noninvasive tool to screen renal impairment (RI) reliably and economically do...

Pneumonia is one of the most common treatable causes of death, and early diagnosis allows for early intervention. Automated diagnosis of pneumonia can therefore improve outcomes. However, it is challenging to develop high-performance deep learning mo...
BACKGROUND: This study intends to establish a combined prediction model that integrates the clinical symptoms,the lung lesion volume, and the radiomics features of patients with COVID-19, resulting in a new model to predict the severity of COVID-19.

This research was aimed at exploring the application value of coronary angiography (CAG) based on a convolutional neural network algorithm in analyzing the distribution characteristics of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-...
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is caused by atherosclerosis and is a common disease of the elderly leading to excess morbidity and mortality. Early PAD diagnosis is important, as the only available causal therapy is addressing risk factors like sm...
Malnutrition is a multidomain problem affecting 54% of older adults in long-term care (LTC). Monitoring nutritional intake in LTC is laborious and subjective, limiting clinical inference capabilities. Recent advances in automatic image-based food est...

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major burden on the healthcare system because of its increasing prevalence, high risk of progression to end-stage renal disease, and poor morbidity and mortality prognosis. It is rapidly becoming a global health cris...
Ageing is associated with various ailments including Alzheimer 's disease (AD), which is a progressive form of dementia. AD symptoms develop over a period of years and, unfortunately, there is no cure. Existing AD treatments can only slow down the pr...
